Wow! Such an overwhelming response!
I was a little unsure of the cherry bark at first, but I will surely put it on my future bows . Since most of my materials are sourced from tree's that are doomed (engineered/approved logging blocks) I don't feel too guilty striping the bark. ( cherry is left to rot , no market value.)
All these great comments give me the confidence to keep building bows for a long time. I'll put the time in to upload my future exploits.
Thanks Everyone!
